No one would've traded for him with the contract he has.

Another talent wasted by Pioli.

God Damnit!

He has been released. Had a great run for us considering his size. I think we'll be fine without him. The only reason why they were so bad in the 3rd CB position last year after Flowers went down was because it was Dunta Robinson playing that role. We should be fine with Parker stepping up, 3rd round Gaines, etc.

WTF? It's not so bad that he's being released, as he's injury prone and expensive, but.....


.....who the hell is going to fill his spot?

No one is going to give up anything for a $10 mil slot corner who had a bad year last year.

Two players who haven't proven a damn thing. No, i don't think they'll be fine.

In the slot or on the outside? Our starters are going to be Smith and Cooper with Gaines or Owens in the slot.

We are perfectly set up to get a franchise QB in the next draft.

No compensation. No nothing.

Someone please justify this.

Uhhh...Teicher was on with Petro this afternoon saying that based on OTA's Gaines looks like he's a ways away and would be surprised if he can help the Chiefs on defense this season.

It will be worth it when we use that cap money to extend Houston.

We'll be fine with Parker, Chris Owens (who actually has extensive experience playing the slot and was one of the better slot corners in the league but didn't get too much play in FA because he is too small to be anything else), and Gaines. Van Dyke has a shot to make the team also. We're going faster on this team, that's a good thing.

Who wants to trade with you when they know you have to release him? Nobody was going to take that cap hit/salary.

Opens up cap room to extend Justin Houston/Alex Smith, more importantly Houston.

Parker and Owens are both guys who can slide right into the slot. Owens especially.

inexperience and doubt scare me
